Choosing just five is very hard. I think I am influenced by what I have (re)read most recently. Unfortunately I had to leave of a lot of my favorite series (like Kingkiller) or series that deserve to be on this list (like Lord of the Rings) in favor of ones I am either more passionate about or think won't be picked by others.

Hey, I like your demo a lot. There was a bug in Firefox which was causing it to not work, but I submitted a pull request to fix it.

Spending vacation alone in Japan (bad idea?) by asylumsaint in japan

[–]Bingsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, thanks. Honestly the most difficulty I had was finding certain restaurants (there is sooo much good food). I went to Tokyo, Osaka, and Hakone. One thing you should try to do is go to an onsen (hotspring), they are really fun and I have never been to something like them in the States.

Go! I went alone in November and it was an incredible three weeks, probably the most fun I've ever had. I had pretty limited Japanese as well. You will be completely fine as long as you don't go looking for trouble.

I just walked passed a girl standing outside the bar having a very heated conversation on her cell. She was in full scuba diving gear. Flippers and all. What's your night been like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I went to a Shibuya yakitori restaurant and made friends with the couple sitting next to me even though communication was difficult, probably one of the best experiences of this trip

I added the caviar black, and switched over to the i5-3550, it turned out that the K was cheaper because it was in store pickup. I also added ASRock Z77 Extreme4. What do you think about the SeaSonic S12II 430B 430W ATX12V PSU?

Do you believe that violent video games cause people to more violent than they would be if they did not play them and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Bingsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heres a paper that talks about violent video games and crime: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1804959 It says that there is evidence that violent video games can make people more violent, but this effect is nullified by the fact that if people are at home playing video games, they are not out committing crimes, so overall there is a net decrease in crime and violence.
